The Water Department decided to evaluate its information systems' strategy and to
align technology systems with its business needs. As a result, the Water Department
completed an Information Systems Master Plan (ISMP) to address these needs. The
Water Department decided to undertake an information strategic planning initiative to:
ensure that all applications are growing in a uniform direction;
review existing applications in light of the Department's strategic business direction;
align system development and delivery with business objectives; review existing Information system section organization and its relationship with other
sections within the Department; and,
review existing application and information systems development and procurement
strategies.
The ISMP exercise was conducted with involvement of Department staff and
management team members. The strategic planning approach was one provided by EMA through experience with other utilities.
